Science Olympiad

Published: 14 December 2012

This is an excellent activity for students who like science. Students in grades 3-10 can take part in a variety of science activities involving hands-on challenges, tests of knowledge and scientific measurement skills. The day begins with a parade for all participants, and winners get medals!.

The Pakistan Science Club's Science Olympiad is devoted to improving the quality of science education, increasing student interest in science and providing recognition for outstanding achievement in science education by both students and teachers.

The Science Olympiad goals are accomplished through the dedication of Pakistan Science Club teachers and parents who organize classroom activities, research, and after school training clubs. A main focus of our competition is to elevate science education and learning to a level of enthusiasm and support that is normally reserved only for varsity sports programs.

The Science Olympiad tournaments are rigorous academic interscholastic competitions that consist of a series of individual and team events. In grades 6-12, Science Olympiad functions much like a football or soccer team, requiring preparation, commitment, coaching and practice throughout the year. Other competitions follow the format of popular board games and TV shows. These challenging and motivational events are well balanced between the various science disciplines of biology, earth science, chemistry, physics, computers and technology. There is also a balance between events requiring knowledge of science facts, concepts, processes, skills and science applications.
